大学的使命越来越广。其中越来越多地包括在地方和区域发展中的明确作用。这篇文章的重点是英国现代大学（以前被称为新大学，以前的理工学院）的角色。这些大学对它们在地方和区域发展中的作用非常感兴趣，桑德兰大学和牛津布鲁克斯大学的案例研究就是一个例子。讨论范围从直接和间接的就业和支出影响扩大到对当地知识经济的影响，并扩大到对可持续发展的更广泛贡献。这一整体观点表明，现代大学正在为地方和区域发展议程做出重大贡献，其机构和位置背景导致了有趣的区域差异。这种回返值得大力支持。
Universities have widening missions. Increasingly these include explicit roles in local and regional development. This article focuses on such roles for the UK modern universities (formerly known as the new universities, and previously polytechnics). Such universities have taken considerable interest in their local and regional development roles, as exemplified by the case studies of Sunderland University and Oxford Brookes University. The discussion widens from the direct and indirect employment and expenditure impacts, to effects on the local knowledge economy, and towards a wider contribution to sustainable development. This holistic view shows that the modern universities are making major contributions to the local and regional development agendas, with interesting regional variations resulting from their institutional and locational contexts. Such returns merit considerable support.
